The animated movie Space Chimps is released this coming July in the US, so logical thinking would deduce that launching the videogame based on the film around the same time would make a lot of sense. That’s happening in our first example. However, developer Brash Entertainment has today announced that the title will see the light of day in Europe over two months after its localised cinema debut, on October 16.

Like many videogames based on movies, Space Chimps allows players to go beyond what Hollywood can offer in an hour or two, granting them access to an extended world, begging to be explored. The title sees simians Ham, Titan and Luna crash-landing on a strange planet ruled by an evil, on a mission to find the lost Infinity Space Probe.
